The degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in sludge in aerobic fermentation process is affected by many factors, and the pile body pH value is one of the important factors. Through the test of mixing lime pile body regulating pH value (7.7, 8.2, 9), the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon degradation effect was researched under the different pH conditions and the same of the other aerobic fermentation conditions. The results showed that, pH=7.7 test device (not mixing lime ) on PAHs degradation effect was best, worst was the pH=8.2 test device, the sludge degradation of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons effect is negative effect.

The biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soils by laccase is reported. However, the low laccase activities of free laccase have limited its applications in environmental bioremediation. In this study, polluted soil was made with 3:1 volume ratio of soil to PAH solution. Subsequently, the adsorption?cross-link composite immobilization method was applied to immobilize laccase derived from fungi onto nylon net and chitosan, respectively. These two kinds of immobilized laccase were used in the degradation of pyrene (Pyr) and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), and their degradation efficiencies under different temperature and pH conditions were investigated. Consequently, the optimal laboratory experimental parameters were determined as follows: first, compared with free laccase, the degradation rates of Pyr and BaP by immobilized laccase increased by around 10?30 %; second, the degradation efficiency of chitosan as a carrier of immobilized laccase was much better than that of nylon net as a carrier of the immobilized laccase; finally, when the temperature was set at 40?C and the pH was set at 4, the degradation efficiency achieved by immobilized laccase was the best.

We show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chromophores that are linked between two five-membered rings can access planarized structures with reduced optical gaps and redox potentials. Two aceanthrylene chromophores were connected into dimer model systems with the chromophores either projected outward (2,2’-biaceanthrylene) or inward (1,1’-biaceanthrylene) and the optical and electronic properties were compared. Only the planar 2,2’-biaceanthrylene system showed significant reductions of the optical gaps (1 eV) and redox potentials in relation to the aceanthrylene monomer.<br>

The concentration of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the gasoline combustion products emitted into the atmosphere by internal combustion engines (ICE) has been measured using the gas chromatography method. The concentrations of PAHs in the exhaust gases sampled behind a catalytic converter has been determined when the ICE operates in five modes: idle mode, high speed mode, load mode, ICE cold start mode (engine warm-up) and transient mode. Using 92 RON, 95 RON and 98 RON gasoline the effect of the octane number of gasoline on the PAHs content in the exhaust gases has been revealed. The concentration of the most carcinogenic component (benzo(α)pyrene) in the exhaust gases behind a catalytic converter significantly exceeds a reference value of benzo(α)pyrene in the atmospheric air established by the WHO and the EU for ICE in the load mode.
